I normally use sdf, with grex as a backup for bad-yahoo days. Grex is rarely
blocked by yahoo.

resp:14: Far too much to buy for my needs. I didn't purchase it before,
I had a license from when I worked at vmware. Sadly, I no longer do. :(
In other news, it seems I've just paid for another 2 years of grex's
domain names. Happy New Year!
In related news, does anyone know why we're paying for private
registration? Seems like a silly expense, even if it is only $10/yr.

No idea; seems kind of wasteful to me.

Fly like a song, fly while you're singing
A song without you is a bird without winging
Some city flights leave in the morning
Some city nights end without warning
Can you hear me call?

If you didn't notice from the Grex problems item, Dan Cross upgraded
Grex's OpenBSD to version 6.1. Grex was inaccessible for a few days
during this process. Many applications have been updated to newer
versions. If something is missing or not working right, post about it
in the problems item and let staff know.

FYI: I've rewritten the `menu` shell. As far as the user interface is
concerned, this version is a more-or-less faithful recreation of the
previous version, though there are some minor differences in some of
the details.
This version is written in `go`; the older version was written in C and
was something of a nightmare.

FYI: I'm going to write about Grex a little bit in the `agorage` conference
(conf:agorage). Check it out if you're interested. Or don't.

"conf:" is a neat trick, like "resp:".
Are there any other tags like that we can put in bt posts? References to
to responses in other items and items in other conferences would be us
useful.
Are such tags documented anywhere? I've searched the bt documentation
on unixpapa.com but haven't found anything.

There will be downtime tomorrow as I attempt to migrate Grex to
different hardware. I need to repurpose the hardware Grex is currently
running on, and need to figure out a way to move the VM.

The transition to the other hardware was completed successfully.
Apologies for the downtime.

Thanks for taking care of the old girl. ;)
May I ask on what hardware Grex is now running? Is it in a VM?

M-Net and Grex both became VM's several years ago. They exist today on
an HP bl495c G5 server blade.

GREX is an even more hidden gem of the net than Tildeverse. I
really like this place.

Indeed, it is. A little too hidden and underused.
